Lipps Service: St. Barth’s Imitates Life

In our Friday feature, Lipps Service, One Model Management owner Scott Lipps shares photos from his fabulous life with us once a week, right here. This week, Scott reflects, you can never have enough good beach pictures—and when he’s freezing his ass off in New York, it’s nice to look at them—but as he runs into countless New Yorkers who seem to be able to recall every last “beach shot” he did in St. Barth’s, it starts to seem a little funny… so in that spirit, included in this week’s feature are a few more epic shots to tide us over until Scott’s next trip to the islands. His last few days in St. Barth’s were spent hanging out with Brian Atwood and Todd Moscowitz and seeing a few famous folks like Simon Cowell, followed by a lovely day trip to St. Maarten and then the long trek back home to New York. But it’s hard to begrudge “work” when what that means is shooting pictures of lovely models like Chloe Nørgaard, Liisa Winkler, and Selita Ebanks; dropping by the set to visit Sean Avery, Terry Richardson, and Karolina Kurkova; and hanging out with indie band The Cribs’ Ryan Jarman. Scott’s going to spend the next week prepping the POPLIPPS book (very exciting!), which will be out this year via Powerhouse Books, and getting ready to play Sundance with Courtney Love in a week or so. Back to reality (sort of)!
